Guest guest Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 People who are shocked to learn that you are no longer dieting? I have had many people think that I was just " giving up " and was planning on taking up residence at the local twinkie factory... So frustrating! I try to explain the philosphy behind it, but I guess it is something you have to live to fully understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 well, i don't. i mean i don't try to explain what i'm doing. when the subject of diets comes up, i just tell them that since diets don't work for me, i don't diet any more and that i eat the best i can--that's it. i know that since i still have plenty of weight to lose, my statement may not be as impressive, but it will in time--of that i am sure!!! people will believe what they want to believe regardless of what we try to explain to them--so there's no point in getting myself all frustrated trying to explain what i'm doing. we know what we are doing and that's what really matters!Cecilia >> People who are shocked to learn that you are no longer dieting?
